What does run off test shows?Quote:

It is looking as though you have some sort of toxicity in the soil. To test the run off, you would need to water your medium until the excess water fills the drip tray, then you could run your ph and ppm and all those other tests on that, though I don't believe you will get an accurate idea of the problem.
i only have ph reading probe there not too acurate but shows soil at ph 6.7 - 6.8 after a flushed my soil with just water the run off came out very discoloured at first then gradually cleared up but i havent got the stuff to test ph of that i am feeding it on a mix of bio bizz grow formula and also bio bizz bloom formula shall i stop the grow??? and i also get a bad smell from the room like algai how can i prevent this
Nice lady so far...why quit just before the finish line?
Any roots coming out of the bottom? How long has it been in the same pot? (rootbound?)
Do you let it dry between waterings? If not, mold or algae will likely develop.
Air circulation helps, too. Do you keep a fan on her?
Filling out the Troubleshooting Form would help to come to a more accurate diagnosis.
Run-off water comes-out murky, then as particulate matter settles, clears up.
Soil ph probes are unreliable. Milwaukee makes a good cheap ph pen, but there's others out there. Whether you use a ph pen, or an aquarium ph test kit...at the very least you need to know the ph of your water going in.
YES I HAVE HAD IT IN THE SAME POT FOR AGES WHEN YOU TAKE THE PLANT OUT OF THE POT YOU CAN SEE THE ROOTS THERE IS NOT MUCH ROOM TO GROW ANYMORE WILL THIS AFFECT MY YEILD???? IT DOES NOT GET BONE DRY BETWEEN WATERING AND YES I HAVE A FAN ON IT FROM DAY1 EITHER 18/6 AND 12/12... OH AND IF THIS PESISTS WILL THE PLANT DIE IS IT THAT BAD???????:(:(
You need to repot or deal with it. You've got that plant cramped. Which in turn is probably causing you some lockout issues.
I suggest repotting. Cutting off all the browned tips and monitoring it.
What size is that pot? It looks like a 3 gallon pot. I would suggest transplanting into a 5 gallon pot and leave it there until you harvest in about 6-8 more weeks.
looks like root bound...
it might be a pH issue too..
Flush it and repot it to a 5 gallon pot
ok thanks for the advice just one more thing would it be advisable to use pk13/14 along with bio bizz products such as bio grow and bio bloom or shall i stop using the grow?????????
Honestly less is more.Quote:

E-indoor or outdoor? Indoor
E-soil, soilless, coco, aero, or hydroponic SOIL
E-specific medium
CSL-Soil type/brand MIRACLE GROW I THINK??
HCL-Hydro/aero/soilless system type dwc
SCL-Anything you have added to the soil
SCLR-Soil or slab runoff pH
E-Water source tap
E-Source water ph
HRT-Source water EC (if hydro
E-Age of plant 4 AND A HALF WEEKS FLOWERING
E-Type of fertilizer BIO BIZZ GROW AND BLOOM
E-Rate of application (if hydro, this is your PPM number, preferably after each component is added) TWICE DAILY
E-Lighting source and distance from plant 40-60CM
E-Air temperature (both day and night if you are running a dark period)
HD-Reservoir temperature
E-Air % Relative humidity
E-Lighting schedule 12/12
E-Type of ventilation your room has VENTED WARDROBE WITH FAN
TR-Did you pre-soak your media in pH corrected solution? NO
How long has your plant been in that pot? What is the size of that pot? Seriously, transplant into a 5 gallon pot with more fresh soil. Your roots are cramped and you're creating a lockout situation.Quote:

the pistels to 80% brown and the trichs should be 40% amber depending on taste( indica)
you probably have 3-4 weeks left, she should make it if you give them roots some more room(repot)
Shit...just noticed...did you transplant with Miracle Grow soil?
Once you transplant, you'll likely experience some stretch. Don't let it freak you out, it's normal. (for me, at least) Hope you still have headroom for her.
Likely too late now, but no big deal. Might want to plan your transplants a little better next time, but with mid-flower transplants you'll generally want a less aggressive soil, as innert as possible. The more nitrogen it has, the more dramatic the stretch.
ok thanks alot u guys lookin good now at least its not dead!! oh and i took an early bud for a spliff and GOD!!! well worth the aggro....nearly all of my pistils are red but the buds dont seem to be that big i am now flushing for another 10 days before harvest shall i give another while??? or am i ready also will the buds get much bigger coz they look fairly small or is that because i repoted it too late???
sum pics
how are the trichomes?
dont forget to flush
plants normally get a growth spurt last few weeks
next time repot earlier for bigger buds(before the plant looks to large fot the pot it's currently in):thumbsup::thumbsup::jointsmile::stoned:
